screaming (vocal fry)
im in a band. and ever since we kicked out our lead guitarist last year we’ve really been hitting it off. writing songs, playing shows, gaining popularity.
in a lot of songs I’d love to be able to scream and stuff so I’ve been searching and searching. and trying and trying. as of now when I scream I sound like old M. Shadows (Avenged Sevenfold) but it hurts pretty bad to do it. I know that means im doing it wrong. I’ve been trying to learn the vocal fry technique that many bands use (the used, bullet for my valentine, etc)
I’ve watched videos on youtube and watched the melissa cross Zen of Screaming DVDs and stuff. but does anyone else have some personal tips??
Thanks! :)
I can teach you to scream amazingly for sure… just follow my tips/advice and I bet you’ll do just fine -
First off, there’s more to it than just screaming. You have to know HOW to do it and what things to do… or else you’ll fck up your vocal cords and sht. That wouldn’t be too fun now would it?
Screamo sounds really awesome when done right. My advice to you is just practice. You won’t sound EXACTLY like the bands who do screamo. Everybody who does screamo has their own unique sound. Just try to start out by testing different sounds and such… low, loud, in between. Each should have a different sound. DON’T PUSH YOURSELF. If your throat starts hurting or your voice starts slipping STOP. Don’t risk hurting your vocal chords. Keep a drink like water, gatorade or whatever you drink, handy that way you can get a drink in between screaming. This is an important thing to do to keep your vocal chords moist, that way your vocals chords don’t start getting dry. Be sure to take breaks from it too. Don’t keep practicing 24/7. Get a drink before you start, in between during your breaks from screaming and after you’ve finished for the day/night. Don’t try to be something your not either. If you don’t get it, don’t worry. Maybe you will some other time. Practice for a half hour or an hour and then stop for the time being and maybe try again later that night for another half hour or so. Be sure to take a few 10 minute breaks or so in between your practicing times too as I said before.
Just follow my advice and you should be fine. But like I said… if it hurts… STOP. Don’t ever push yourself or else you’ll cause damage to your throat/vocal cords and then you’ll really be wishin you hadn’t of pushed it huh?
Ignore the dumbas*es who just say stuff like uhhh… just scream or start by hating your life. Screamo has nothing to do with hating your life. And there’s WAY more to it than just screaming.
I think this pretty much covers the basics. If you need anything else, feel free to funmail me.
it depends on what kind of screaming your doing man if your pigsqueeling then it will probably hurt if your sucking in but if you no how to exhale when you do it then it want but when you in hale and screamn it sounds better but it tears your throat up. so you might not nesacarly(srry) be doing it wrong. it depends on were your voice is and its deepnes and stuff.
secound if your trying to pig squeel kinda say breee while doing the grude sound. thats always works. and if your trying to do a loud high pitch scream then its kind of like yelling ahhh but saying lieee. try it if works tell me.
